TEST BANK WITH COMPLETE
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
DETAILED ANSWERS GRADED A+
When receiver gets message, receiver decrypts with their private key (confidentiality),
then decrypts digital signature with sender's public key (authenticity), then compares
has of decrypted message to the hash that was sent with message (to ensure integrity)
Disaster recovery plan (DRP) - Answer-a set of human, physical, technical and
procedural resources to recover, within a defined time and cost, an activity interrupted
by an emergency or disaster. Procedures to restore organization's IT function typically
involve
Cold Site - Answer-An IS backup facility that has the necessary electrical and physical
components of a computer facility, but does not have the computer equipment in place.
The site is ready to receive the necessary replacement computer equipment in the
event that the users have to move from their main computing location to the alternative
computer facility.
Hot site - Answer-A fully operational offsite data processing facility equipped with both
hardware and system software to be used in the event of a disaster.
Business continuity plan (BCP) - Answer-plan used by an enterprise to respond to
disruption of critical business processes. The goal is quick and complete recovery and
resumption of normal operations. Depends on the contingency plan for restoration of
critical systems
Full Backup - Answer-complete copy of all data
Differential Backup - Answer-backs up only the files that changed since the last full
backup. The amount of data being backed up grows with each differential backup task
until the next full backup.
Incremental Backup - Answer-backs up only the changed data, but it only backs up the
data that has changed since the last backup - whether that back up was a full or
incremental backup. The result is a much smaller and faster backup. The advantage of
incremental backups is the shorter the time intervals between backups.
, Disk Mirroring - Answer-the practice of duplicating data in separate volumes on two
hard disks to make storage more fault tolerant. Mirroring provides data protection in the
case of disk failure because data are constantly updated to both disks. Does not protect
you from loss of both copies.
Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) - Answer-provides emergency power to a load
when the input power source or mains power fails
Patch Management - Answer-a patch is a fix to correct software programming errors
and vulnerabilities. Patch management is an area of systems management that involves
acquiring, testing and installing multiple patches (code changes) to an administered
computer system in order to maintain up‐to‐date software and often to address security
risk.
Application Controls - Answer-These controls help ensure data accuracy,
completeness, validity, verifiability and consistency, thus achieving data integrity and
data reliability.
Input Controls - Answer-every transaction to be processed is entered, processed and
recorded accurately and completely (and timely when applicable). These controls
should ensure that only valid and authorized information is input and these transactions
are processed only once. Includes manual & machine inputs.
Turnaround Document - Answer-Turnaround document is a document that is generated
as output from a computer, then some information is added to it, then the returned
document becomes an input document.
Hash Total - Answer-sum of a non‐financial field in a batch of records. Do not confuse
with hashes and hashing.
Financial Total - Answer-a sum of a financial (monetary) field in a batch of records.
Record Count - Answer-a count of the number of records (items/documents) in a batch.
Batch input error handling can be processed by: - Answer-Rejecting only transactions
with errors, Rejecting the whole batch of transactions, Holding the batch in suspense,
Accepting the batch and flagging error transactions
Transaction Log - Answer-An input control technique, Contains a detailed list of all
updates. The log can be either manually maintained or provided through automatic
computer logging. A transaction log can be reconciled to the number of source
documents received to verify that all transactions have been input.
Reconciliation of data - Answer-An input control technique, Controls whether all data
received are properly recorded and processed.
